As a backend engineer, you will take end-to-end ownership of backend systems within your squad, and play a crucial role in designing, building, and scaling Seekho's core services. You will architect high-quality and reliable APIs, improve critical backend components, and ensure our systems remain performant, secure, and maintainable. Seekho is an AI-native engineering org, and AI agents are part of your everyday toolkit — used to move faster on implementation and repetitive work, so you can focus your energy on architecture, correctness, and the judgment calls AI can't make for you.

This is a high-impact individual contributor role, where you are expected to independently lead complex features, drive technical discussions, and elevate engineering quality within the squad. You will collaborate closely with Product Managers, developers, and cross-functional teams to translate business requirements into scalable technical solutions.

Your Role:
Lead and deliver complex backend features end-to-end—from understanding requirements to deployment
Translate business needs into robust,



scalable backend solutions
Design clean, modular, scalable system components
Refactor and improve critical backend modules to enhance performance, reliability, and maintainability
Establish and promote engineering best practices within the squad
Conduct high-quality code reviews, ensuring maintainable and productive code — including AI-generated code, reviewed with the same rigour as human-written code
Work closely with PMs, designers, and frontend teams to ensure seamless execution
Provide technical clarity during planning, assisting in scoping and solution engineering
Mentor junior engineers through guidance, pairing, and reviews
Diagnose system bottlenecks, fix large-scale issues, and optimize backend performance
